Bristol Palin has begun filming her new reality show, Life is a Tripp, with her three-year-old son, but there is one person who will be conspicuously absent from the show — her ex-boyfriend and baby daddy!

Life is a Tripp will air on Lifetime and the network released a statement Wednesday announcing the upcoming reality show.

“From the first moment she was thrust into the public eye, Bristol and her son have been the subjects of a huge amount of curiosity and misunderstanding. This show will reveal the real Bristol Palin and her journey as a daughter, a mother and a young woman making her way in the world,” the press release reads.
